Know how LG WING enhances your smartphone experience

0
As LG has recently unveiled its first Explorer Project device LG WING, we got to see that this smartphone looks like a conventional, modern smartphone, albeit a very stylish one. With the front of the phone swivels up 90-degrees to reveal another screen, LG has now revealed three different ways LG WING makes enjoying content better and expands the entire user experience. With LG WING, the users need not see any pop-ups hindering their view again. Moreover, the all alerts can easily be shifted to the 3.9-inch Second Screen – keeping the spacious 6.8-inch FHD+ 20.5:9 aspect ratio Main Screen free for uninterrupted content enjoyment. Also LG informed that there’s no notch or punch hole owing to a 32MP Pop Up Camera that hidden from sight until it’s in use. Secondly, the other screen can work as the Media Controller that helps your fingers from obscuring the Main Screen when adjusting volume or brightness. Furthermore, LG stated that the users must activate Grip Lock to ignore accidental screen taps if they just see the time and date on the Second Screen while watching a movie or show. LG WING’s Swivel Mode was designed so that only one hand is needed to comfortably grip the device when watching content in landscape on the Main Screen. LG WING expands the user experience by delivering next-level multitasking with the ability to run two apps simultaneously, one on each display. By accessing YouTube via the Naver Whale browser – customized specifically for LG WING – you can enjoy videos on the Main Screen while browsing or leaving comments on the Second Screen. Watch a live sports match in stunning full screen while simultaneously arguing over each play with friends and family. In LG WING, the navigation screen stays open on the Main Screen to enable you to answer the call on the Second Screen by keeping you on track to your appointment. Thirdly, LG WING comes equipped with new content-creation tools for users who love to record all aspects of their lives with their smartphones. Moreover, the Gimbal Motion Camera utilizes six motion sensors in the phone to allow creators the ability to capture smoother, steadier videos and pictures that’s available in Swivel Mode. The smartphone provides much of the functionality of an actual gimbal without the bulk or expense. According to LG, “One setting, First Person View (FPV) Mode, is ideal for action type shots when you want to capture what a scene looks like from your perspective. Another setting, Follow Mode, forces the LG WING camera to follow your movements smoothly, staying level and turning more deliberately when you move your hand to point to another object.” As the first device from LG’s Explorer Project, LG WING smartphone represents a new step forward for the mobile viewing experience and a much overdue evolution of the smartphone user experience. And based on early reviews from tech pundits, it might be the best example of innovation, functional design and problem solving seen in the smartphone space in years.

In order to enhance imaging experience for camera lovers, Panasonic India has launched the latest addition to its flagship S series – LUMIX S5 for the Indian market. With a price tag of Rs 1,64,900 for body and Rs 1,89,900 for kit, LUMIX S5 is available across Panasonic brand shops and Panasonic 4K Imaging School. According to Panasonic, LUMIX S5 hybrid full-frame mirrorless camera, packs the essence of the conventional S Series camera in a compact, lightweight body and provides excellent performance in both shooting photos and recording videos for serious and enthusiastic photographers, videographers and digital content creators. Asserting that the company keeps the consumer requirements at the core when researching and launching new technologies, Manish Sharma, President and CEO, Panasonic India & South Asia, said, “With the surge in online content consumption, we have seen a rise in demand for high quality imaging solution to create superior content. Bringing in this latest model of our LUMIX full-frame mirrorless technology in India, is a step towards catering to this growing demand amongst photographers, videographers and content creators. India is one of our key markets and we see immense potential in the full-frame mirrorless camera segment. And being an avid photographer myself, can’t wait to get my hands on the new S5.” As far as the specifications are concerned, LUMIX S5 contains a 24.2-megapixel 35mm full-frame CMOS sensor that delivers a wide dynamic range and high sensitivity performance made possible by sufficient light condensation. Delivering crystal clear high sensitivity videos, S5 boasts Dual Native ISO technology, enabling users to shoot images and videos with minimal noise. Furthermore, LUMIX S5 is powered with advanced deep-learning technology that provides high-speed, high-precision AF (auto focus) in both taking stills and recording videos by featuring real-time detection of the subject’s features such as human eye, face, head and body. Additionally, the camera features a separate mode dial dedicated for slow and quick motion, to effectively capture time lapse and slow motion videos.

Hisense Android TV 43A71F review: Great visuals and audio

0
Hisense might be a new entrant in India, but we have experienced its TVs plenty of times at CES (Consumer Electronics Show) at Las Vegas, USA. The company is known for giving great (latest) features at affordable rates. Bringing the same theory to India, Hisense launched a flurry of thin tubes in India out of which we got the 43-inch Android Television to tinker with. We spent some time with the flat screen and this is our review of Hisense Android TV 43A71F.

Design

Out of the box, the Hisense Android TV 43A71F takes very little time to setup. The manual is thorough enough to get you rolling. Looks-wise the TV has similarities with other brands in the market that have a similar twin V type table stand and thin bezels. However here the bottom bezel with the Hisense branding is broader than the other three sides (that are really thin). There are no physical buttons on the TV set and since it is a smart TV, you have to enable or browse everything with the supplied remote. The Hisense Android TV 43A71F has a single component port at the back along with 3 HDMI, 1 Ethernet and 2 USB ports on the side. A 3.5mm auxiliary port can also be found here. These are somewhat accessible from the side (we would have wanted closer to the side and not deeper in). The remote is well made and has a mesh running on its back for extra grip. It has all the necessary functions along with some great quick access buttons for OTT players such as Netflix, YouTube, Google Play, Prime Video and Disney Hotstar.

Hisense Android TV 43A71F Performance

Moving on the fun part. Hisense Android TV 43A71F is made for binge-watchers and couch-potatoes who want nothing but the best sound and picture quality. This television provides both. You can watch 4K video on this smart TV with powerful sound. Unlike most in the category, this TV set provides 24W RMS sound with Dolby Atmos. Trust us, the sound on this TV is very loud and good for medium to a large room. We played a lot of varied content on the TV starting from Netflix shows to YouTube videos. A couple of Xbox games were also thrown in and everything worked quite well. The colours were very vivid with exceptional blacks. Since it is an LED smart TV with Dolby Vision, the games (especially the racing ones) look very nice. Audio for both, gaming and movies is great, and like we said 24W sound with Dolby Atmos does a super job. Talking a bit more about the Tech Specs, this smart TV has 2GB RAM inside with 16GB of space. It is built on Google Android 9 Pie for TVs so boot time is quite low. It takes about 20 seconds for it to fully load up. Apps like Netflix, Disney Hotstar, Prime Video come preloaded on the OS and more can be downloaded from the App store. Most popular playback files like MP4, MP3, JPEG etc are supported via the USB drive as well. There is a dedicated sports mode on the TV too that adjusts the contrast of the TV according to the sport type.

Verdict

All in all, the Hisense Android TV 43A71F is a good TV. Things like Google assistant are in-built and can be accessed easily with the supplied remote. This smart TV supports both Ethernet and Wi-Fi and connects to 5GHz (Wi-Fi) for fast speed internet with a compatible modem. That is good since none of us wants to be hit with the bugging buffer wheel. At Rs 32,990 this 43-inch smart TV might seem to be on the higher side. However, none of the competition has the same kind of features this TV has. Also, right now since they are a new brand in the country they might have teething issues. You can definitely buy this one if you can look past these. Pros Excellent picture quality Exceptional sound Nice remote control Cons Build quality could be better Price For the latest gadget and tech news, and gadget reviews, follow us on TwitterFacebook and Instagram. For newest tech & gadget videos subscribe to our YouTube Channel.
